Product Review : Officium Novum
| 55 of 57 people found the following review helpful  Songs For The Spaces Between The Stars, By This review is from: Officium Novum (Audio CD) In this, their third collaboration, Norwegian saxophonistJan Garbarek and vocal quartet The Hilliard Ensemble (David Jones / countertenor; Rogers Covey-Crump / tenor; Steven Harold / tenor and Gordon Jones / baritone) have taken the liturgical musical canon of the Armenian Orthodox church as the starting point for another sublime musical journey. The juxtaposition of Mr Garbarek's haunting soprano and tenor inventions within and around the other-worldly background of The Hilliard's peerless vocal interpretations is never less than thrilling. If there is a heaven this marriage was made there! At the heart of this wonderful album the arrangement of Nicolai N. Kedrov's extraordinarily beautiful 'Litany' delivers a remarkable listening and emotional experience. The intensity generated by Mr Garbarek's mercurial playing and the sedate concentration of the four singers' perfectly measured rendition of...

Do not be deterred by this indifference, for this is a significant release, accompanied by a beautiful and informative booklet featuring some photographs by the late Mario Giacomelli which perfectly evoke the feel of the music. For the uninitiated, 1994's "Officium" was a huge critical and commercial hit connecting with the then vogue for Gregorian Chant. However, while "Officium" was good, 1999's double "Mnemosyne", drawing from a wider range of sources, was fantastic; richer, more varied, more disorientating but ultimately more satisfying. Now "Novum Officium" builds on the fascination of ECM and Manfred Eicher in particular of Armenia and the Orthodox liturgical tradition in general.On the first few listens, I was slightly disappointed and wondered if the underlying conclusion of the "broadsheet" reviews ("If you liked "Officium" you will like this too") did...

It really did carry you away to the hidden monastery of St Gerold in Austria where it was recorded. The follow-up Mnemosyne was not quite as successful to my ears, being more random and less fluid. Having sung from a young age and still regularly singing plainsong and early music in church, this didn't flick the same switches. The new album mines a different seam from earlier efforts but is more in keeping with Officium than Mnemosyne. If it is not quite as impressive as the first effort, that is perhaps due to familiarity rather than content. If you liked the first album, you'll surely like this one. |
